An initial screener for teachers concerned about a student’s literacy progress and skills application.
Screen small groups or individual students whose learning in literacy is causing concern with standardised assessments.
Six digital subtests position students against accurate benchmarks to identify whether they would benefit from further diagnostic assessments.
Activities and strategies to support learners following the screener are available via the Dyslexia Guidance Handbook (available to purchase separately). Activities, which include photocopiable materials, are based on real classroom experiences, and cover each education stage, from pre-school through to university.
This short test is a quick initial assessment to see how far a student’s abilities and skills match those of people who have been found to have dyslexia. Based on the discrepancy model, the test comprises six subtests covering three areas (two assessments for each): ability, attainment and diagnostic.
The screener can be used by any classroom teacher trained in test administration with a small group or class or individual students. The subtests can be administered across a number of sittings to support students who may need to take rest breaks.

Dyslexia can only be diagnosed by an Educational Psychologist or an appropriately qualified dyslexia assessor.
The Dyslexia Screener offers an initial screener to see how far a student’s abilities and skills match those of people who have been found to have dyslexia. Further assessments, which focus on specific skills, such as spelling, and the processing of speech sounds, are recommended to determine whether intervention is necessary.
This will be different from student to student, depending on their results. In some instances, you may wish to make adaptations to universal provision and in others you might need to complete further investigations.
The Dyslexia Guidance Handbook (available to purchase separately) gives you practical advice on supporting students, from early years to higher education. It has specific teaching strategies and activities that have proven effective in helping students achieve their potential. It also includes additional information to support staff with understanding dyslexia.
